Inside the Writer's Head #6

Inside the Writer's Head #6 – Is there a trope you wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole?

I don't really want to say something is completely off the table. Who knows what one will find them doing in the future? However, I think it is safe to say I will probably never go near any idea found in what I like to call Dick Lit. You know the type. Average, Ordinary Nice Guy or Awesome, Amazing Action Guy, who does everything right and gets the equally boring, but hot, girl in the end of whatever they find themselves doing. But that's not really my style anyway. Unless it's a parody. Then I might. But probably not.

7/7/7 Challenge

11/14/2014

7/7/7 Challenge. Post the seventh page and the seventh line and the following seven lines from a work-in-progress. 

Mine is from the Calling of Blood editions. Of course it is. :)

"'However, there is one condition.”

“Which is?”

“No sex between you and I, unless I seek you out.”

Monista’s smile faded, expression becoming serious. Now there was the true queen, not the harlot she let Lysander and Drumeria make her into. “I did what I must to secure some sort of an alliance, Dandel. Surely you have read that not all battles are won with force and steel.”

Dane bowed his head to her, tilting his glass as well in respect. “It seems Tonse made everyone fight for their survival.’"

So, I am going to do this. It sounds like it'll be potentially fun! I want to break out Lyre Westreach for this. Perhaps Spooky and Dane as well. Maybe some of my other characters that I haven't finished their stories. Oh, the possibilities!
